ed lavandera is live on the scene. what did you find out about the shooting? >> hello, anderson. the two people involved in this altercation, apparently only one gun involved, were two of the three that were wounded. the third person that was wounded was a maintenance worker here at lone star college who was standing nearby. he was wounded in the leg and is being treated at the hospital tonight. right now we know investigators are interviewing the two suspects and the two men involved in the altercation. so far no criminal charges have been filed and no one has been arrested. so they're still trying to piece together exactly what led to all of this. so far the best accounts that we've gotten from what happened i think comes from one of the students at the school who was about ten feet away and said that they could hear the students arguing or actually only one of the students arguing about something, and then all of a sudden it started escalating. according to that one student, she said it seemed like something that could have been resolved but it kept getting worse. i mentioned
